Guide to Cabinetry Bits

Whiteside USA

Whiteside rail and stile bits make sturdy, frame and panel construction, a snap. The profile and panel groove are cut in a single pass, with depth of cut controlled by a ball bearing guide. The bearing provides accuracy and allows the the bits to be used for constructing arched curved or otherwise contoured frames.

Each set consists of two carbide tipped router bits, one for profiling and slotting, and other for coping the end of the rails. Ideal for stock from 5/8" to 7/8" thick.

Get yourself a set of Whiteside Rail and Stile router bits, and your cope won't leave you trying to cope.

Whiteside Router bits are Made in the USA.

Cabinet making bits and sets are designed to complete many of the most common tasks associated with frame and panel construction.

A Raised Panel bit is simply an edge profile cutter designed to cut a decorative reveal around the perimeter of a panel, and thin the edge into a tongue that will fit into the rail and stile of the frame.

Rail and Stile sets consist of two bits for shaping and joining the vertical (stile) and horizontal (rail) of traditional frame and panel doors and cabinets. A pair of matched cutters ensures that the rail and stile fit perfectly and snugly together.

Undersized plywood bits are a useful tool for cutting dado’s and slots to fit common sheet goods.

Fine Wood Working had this to say about Whiteside in their May June 2007 Router-bit review: "At the end of the day, the Whiteside and the Eagle bits had risen to the top of the mix, tying for the highest score. Lee Valley had the second-highest score, followed by Southeast and Woodtek in a tie for third. By the way, Whiteside also had the best bit when we reviewed straight bits in our August 1999 issue (FWW #137). We named the Eagle and Whiteside bits best overall. And, since the Whiteside had one of the lowest prices of the top bits, we also named it best value."
